Pelosi Angry Trump Fired Sec. State She Absolutely Hated

As Washington buzzed on Tuesday with the news that President Donald Trump had fired Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and was hiring CIA Director Mike Pompeo for the job, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi issued a statement criticizing Trump for the move, even though she was against Tillerson herself not all that long ago.

She also proved one more time that when it comes to the Trump White House, Democrats just can’t be trusted.

So in 2016 Pelosi’s view, Tillerson was too cozy with Russia for our allies’ good.

In Nancy Pelosi version 2018, though, Tillerson’s firing is apparently reason to believe that he was standing up for our allies so much that it earned him a “humiliating dismissal” by Trump.

Actually, grounds for a “humiliating dismissal” would be an inability to keep the names of United States presidents straight, apparently forgetting what decade one is living in and suffering public breakdowns on camera.

But since Pelosi has exhibited all of those behaviors and managed to keep her job in Congress, maybe she’s not the best judge.

Maybe her San Francisco liberal constituents are OK with a congresswoman so blinded by her hatred of all things Trump that she can’t be trusted to hold even one opinion consistently if it comes at the price of a chance to criticize the president.

But the rest of America won’t be OK with her leading the opposition party — and that could benefit Republicans as the 2018 midterms approach.
